My hat is off to all those people out there who work full-time jobs and still somehow manage to meet all their commitments. Kudos to you. I on the other hand suck at balancing family and work. Somehow it’s either one or the other and in this case, my mother’s coming to stay so I’m […]
Day 11: Synchronicity
When I quit my day job I spent some time thinking about what sort of work I could do that wouldn’t drive me crazy. I hated the whole 8.30am to 5.00pm hours. It was just too demanding and the whole day was eaten up by work. I’d start getting ready at 7.00pm and then add […]
Day 10: Keep Going, and Going, And …
Some days all you can do is just keep going and going and going and … hope that it’s all in the right direction and will someday lead somewhere. I’ve not been working on my blog, other than keeping a diary of the fact that I’ve not been working on it. Although, I’ve been reading […]
Day 9: Multiple Goals
One of the things I constantly have issues with is multiple goals. I know I’m supposed to choose just one, and focus on it with all my might; how great it will be to acheive that, how it will feel, the things that I will be doing and so on and so forth. But what […]
Day 8: Daydreaming Out Loud
OK, I admit it, things are not exactly hooting along here in the accumulation of $100K. In fact things have hardly moved forward at all.I’ve been resting and job hunting; both important activities but not likely to get me nearer my goal. I have been visualizing which is important. In fact I believe it’s the […]
Day 7: Becoming More Me
One of the biggest challenges I find, with whatever I’m doing to earn money, is the constant conflict between my home persona and my working persona. When I work at a job, which includes anything for a client be it an employer or a customer, I focus on the job at hand and offer the […]
Day 6: Taking A Break
So here it is Day 6 and I need to take a break. WTF is that about? Taking a business from $0 to a $100,000 in 365 is not going to be simple, otherwise everyone would do it. And at this point I really don’t believe that I can do it – seriously I’m a […]
Day 5: Housebound
Its ironic that I want to work for myself, from home, or more specifically from anywhere, and yet when left to my own devices I get jittery and moribund and generally sit around and do very little. So, here I go, back on the merry-go-round. I either have no time because I’m working all the […]
Day 4: What Next?
Alright so I’ve decided I want to make $100,000 on the Internet in 365 days. Although it’s 361 days now. No pressure! How exactly am I going to do that? I have a blog, www.bodyshapestyle.com, which I began last year. Then I met my boyfriend, interest waned, or rather shifted to different activities, and I […]
Day 3: Houston We Have A Problem
Small hiccup – I quit my day job, somewhat ahead of schedule and well short of my goal. About $100K short.! Still, I’m not sorry. I spent all this time thinking about working for myself and financial freedom and travelling to Europe and all I kept coming back to was how wonderful it would feel […]
